bundler: keep the CommonJS wrapper when a file gives module or exports its own value - #41635
bun build emits wrong code for a CommonJS file with a top-level var exports = { local: true } or var module = {...}. module.exports.kind = typeof exports.local gives "undefined", and writes through the own module reach the real exports.
declare_common_js_symbol (src/js_parser/p.rs) merges such a var with the wrapper parameter, as Node does. fold.rs still rewrites exports.x and module.exports.x as export writes.
Fix
The parser flags a module-level var exports / var module with its own value: an initializer, a destructuring pattern, or a for (var ... of/in) target.
In a flagged file, exports.x and module.exports stay as written. The file keeps its __commonJS wrapper.
After a bare module = {...}, module.exports prints as written. It printed as exports before.
Verified: three new cases in test/bundler/bundler_cjs2esm.test.ts. Two fail on main. One pins a var module shim.
Background
Node wraps a CommonJS file in function (exports, require, module, ...). A top-level var exports is that parameter.
The bundler lifts simple CommonJS files to ESM exports. Other files keep a __commonJS(...) wrapper.
Considered a flag where the symbols merge: it also catches the common var exports = module.exports;. Considered leaving module.require() as written: it breaks var module = module || {}, where module stays the wrapper's object.
Downsides
A flagged file is not lifted, so its exports are not tree shaken. Its output was wrong before.
Each var with an initializer costs one name lookup and two compares. Release .text (linux x64): +2,048 bytes.
Still wrong: top-level this.x = 1 beside var exports = {...}, and module.require() or module.id on an own module object.
Node, bun run, esbuild and --format=cjs give the second line.
What does not count
var exports;, var exports = module.exports; and declare var keep the wrapper value, so they set no flag and the file still lifts. var exports = module.exports = {} keeps its wrapper because of the module.exports = assignment, as before.
The var exports = module.exports alias only counts when module is the wrapper's. The parser checks that after the parse pass, when hoisted declarations are known. Beside a top-level function module() {} the alias reads that function's property, and the file keeps its wrapper.
The module.exports rewrite is skipped for either flag, because it prints through exports_ref.
module.require(), module.id, module.filename, module.path and require.main === module are rewritten beside any var module, as on main. A flag does not prove that module is the file's own object at run time: after var module = module || {}, or a var module in a branch that does not run, it is still the wrapper's object, and in a bundle that object has no require. An earlier commit of this PR left those as written, and such a file threw TypeError: module.require is not a function.
A bare assignment to module
module = { exports: {} } without var is an assignment, so it sets no flag. Such a file already keeps its wrapper, because module is used as a value. Its module.exports.leak = 1 was still printed as exports.leak = 1, a write to the wrapper's object. Node gives undefined for leak. Bun 1.4.2 gives 1.
The visitor now sets commonjs_module_exports_assigned_deoptimized for an assignment to module. It already did that for an assignment to exports. With that flag the printer prints module.exports as written.
lib.cjs, fake-module.cjs, reassigned.cjs, nested.cjs: the reported shapes. The whole exports object is compared, so a leaked key fails.
named-exports.cjs, named-module.cjs: read only through named imports. On main both are lifted and lost / leak are 1. These two make the wrapper list fail on main.
destructured.cjs, for-header.cjs, for-of.cjs, for-in-module.cjs: the other declaration forms.
module-require.cjs with dep.cjs: module.require() is still rewritten beside an own var exports.
uninit.cjs, aliased.cjs, ambient.cts: no own value, still lifted. They are read through named imports, because on main a default import that is used as a whole value keeps the wrapper of any CommonJS file.
chained.cjs: the wrapper is kept by the existing module.exports = rule.
block-shadow.cjs: a block-scoped module with var exports = module.exports inside the block. This is right on main too: the block-level var is an assignment to the merged binding, and that use keeps the wrapper. The file only pins it.
function-module.cjs: a top-level function module() {} with var exports = module.exports. On main the file is lifted and foo is exported.
bare-module.cjs: module = { exports: { fake: true } } without var, then module.exports.leak = 1. Bun 1.4.2, and this branch before that rule, give 1 for leak.
cjs2esm/ReactSpecificUnwrappingWithOwnVarModuleOrExportsKeepsWrapper: in an unwrapped package, module.exports = require() becomes export * from. With var module = { exports: {} } in front, main still lifts the file and exports value. With var exports = {...} in front, main lifts it too. In the lifted file that var is the namespace object, so an import * as consumer gets { local: true } in place of the re-exports. Both files keep the wrapper now.
cjs2esm/VarModuleShimKeepsModuleRequireAndRequireMain: var module = module || {} in the entry point and a var module inside if (typeof module === "undefined") in a second file, each with module.require(). It passes on main. It pins the regression described above.
Not covered here, same family
value_for_this still rewrites a top-level this to exports, which is the file's own var in such a file. A gate is not enough: inside the __commonJS wrapper this is not the exports object, so the wrapper call would need a receiver. esbuild gives the same result as Bun here.
A module object of the file's own that has a require, id, filename or path member, or that is compared with require.main, still gets the rewrites for the wrapper's module, as on main.
Matrix
A script bundles a CommonJS file with --target=node and compares the output of the bundle with the output of unbundled Node. The file declares or assigns exports / module in one of 14 ways and uses them in one of 8 ways. One of 4 importers loads it. That gives 448 cells.
Bun 1.4.2: 63 cells differ from Node.
This branch: 34 cells. Each one is wrong in Bun 1.4.2 too, with the same output.
esbuild 0.21.5: 24 cells.
The 34 cells are two faults. Neither needs a declaration of exports or module: both show in the row with no declaration.
24 cells: typeof module.require is "undefined" in the bundle, because the wrapper's module object has no require. esbuild differs from Node in the same 24 cells, with the same output.
10 cells: Object.keys(module.exports) in a lifted file. A namespace import sees every export name before its assignment runs. A side-effect import throws ReferenceError: exports_m is not defined, or a TypeError beside var exports = module.exports. That fault is the subject of bundler: keep the CommonJS wrapper when the lift leaves a module.exports value behind #35665. With its two fold.rs hunks applied by hand to this branch, those 10 cells match Node and no other cell changes.
Run time
bun run does not change. The flags only affect the lift, which runs when bundling.
Size
Release builds (LTO, linux x64) of main 179664ea89 with and without the change: bun.text 107,556,528 and 107,558,576 bytes. data and bss are equal. The stripped file is 107,730,656 bytes in both. There is no instruction count: perf and valgrind are not installed here.
Suites
On the branch merged with main 179664ea89: bundler_cjs2esm, bundler_cjs, bundler_edgecase, esbuild/default, esbuild/importstar, bundler_npm, bundler_regressions, transpiler.test.js, test/js/node/module, the commonjs-* run tests, transpiler-cache.test.ts and two regression tests: 1072 pass, 1 fail across 21 files. The one failure is default/TopLevelAwaitForbiddenRequireSourceMapCLI, which hits the 5 s limit in this debug build with and without the change and passes with a longer limit.
…s its own value
A top-level var named module or exports merges with the CommonJS wrapper
parameter, as in Node. When that var has an initializer of its own, the
CommonJS to ESM unwrapping still treated exports.x and module.exports.x
as export writes. The var lost every use, tree shaking dropped it, and
writes through the user's own module object reached the real exports.
Record such a declaration at parse time and leave module.* and exports.*
alone in that file, so it keeps its __commonJS wrapper. A bare
`var exports;` and `var exports = module.exports;` keep the wrapper
value and still lift to ESM.

Walkthrough
The parser now tracks module-scope var module and var exports declarations. CommonJS-to-ESM rewrites check these declarations before converting assignments or unwrapping modules. Bundler tests cover declaration forms and runtime behavior.
Parser state tracks module-scope module and exports declarations in var statements, destructuring patterns, and loop initializers. It excludes TypeScript declare statements and recognized exports = module.exports initialization.
module.exports and exports property rewrites check for user-declared module or exports; the module.exports rewrite also requires live control flow. Module unwrapping excludes files with user-declared bindings.

Additional findings (outside the current diff — GitHub can't attach inline comments there):
🟣 src/js_parser/parse/parse_stmt.rs — note_var_shadowing_module_or_exports is called from t_var only; the sibling for (var …) header at this line parses hoisted var decls without calling it. The PR notes for (var exports of …) is fine because it "has no initializer", but a C-style for (var exports = {…}; cond; upd) {} at module top level does have an initializer and hoists to module scope, so such a file still gets the buggy CJS→ESM lift the PR is meant to prevent. Fix: call p.note_var_shadowing_module_or_exports(decls.slice()) after parsing the T::TVar for-header decls as well (the helper already walks parent scopes so any for-loop scope is handled).
Extended reasoning...
CJS file: for (var exports = {local: true}; false;) {} module.exports.kind = typeof exports.local;. The var exports = {local: true} is parsed at parse_stmt.rs:606 (T::TVar arm inside the for-statement parser), which does not invoke note_var_shadowing_module_or_exports, so has_user_declared_module_or_exports stays false. The var hoists to module scope and merges with exports_ref via declare_common_js_symbol exactly as a plain var exports would, so fold.rs still lifts exports.* and drops the user's initializer — the same wrong output the PR fixes for the plain-var form. REVIEW.md asks that sibling sites of the same class be covered in the same PR; the author's stated exclusion rationale ("no initializer") only holds for for-of/for-in, not the C-style form.
Verification: pre-existing — acknowledged in diff: the PR notes only for (var exports of …) and justifies it with "has no initializer"; that claim does not hold for C-style for (var … = …; …; …), so the acknowledged carve-out does not cover this case. The only call site of the new helper is t_var (parse_stmt.rs:153). The for-statement's own T::TVar arm parses hoisted decls without calling it:…
… more forms
- Separate flags: a user `var exports = ...` no longer turns off the
module.require()/module.id rewrites, only the module.exports one
(which prints through exports_ref).
- Detect the declaration in a for(var ...) header and inside
destructuring patterns too.
- Skip `declare var` (no runtime effect) and read the name through
load_name_from_ref so an undeclared binding ref cannot index symbols.
- Only `var exports = module.exports` keeps the wrapper value;
`var module = module.exports` does not.

Changes since the first review round.
The var exports = module.exports alias only counts when module is the wrapper's. A top-level function module() {} keeps the wrapper.
module.require(), module.id and require.main === module are rewritten beside any var module, as on main. A var module = module || {} shim works.
After an assignment module = {...} without var, module.exports prints as written.
Still open. A top-level this.x = 1 beside an own var exports. The description has the details.

Re-reviewed after the latest push — all five earlier concerns are now addressed in the code (split has_user_declared_module/_exports flags, load_name_from_ref + the is_typescript_declare skip, the name == b"exports" guard on the module.exports exemption, the recursive BArray/BObject walk, and the !is_loop_target gate on the exemption), each with a matching fixture in the new test. I found nothing further; a human pass on the CJS→ESM lift semantics is still worthwhile given how many bundled files go through this path.
What was reviewed:
var_hoists_to_module_scope mirrors the existing kind_stops_hoisting() parent-walk at p.rs:10043 and fold.rs:68, so the .unwrap() is the same established invariant.
The module.exports exemption is now conservative in the safe direction — a miss (parens, indirection) only costs the ESM lift, not correctness; the dangerous direction (exempting var module = module.exports or a for-in target) is closed.
fold.rs gating: module.require/module.id skip only on has_user_declared_module; exports.x and module.exports.x rewrites skip on either flag (both print through exports_ref), which matches the test's module-require.cjs and fake-module.cjs outputs.
Extended reasoning...
Overview
This PR teaches the parser to detect a top-level var module = … / var exports = … (including destructuring and all three for-header positions) that shadows the CommonJS wrapper parameters, and disables the CJS→ESM lift and the exports.x / module.exports.x / module.require rewrites for the affected name so the file keeps its __commonJS wrapper and matches Node semantics. Two new bool fields on P, a helper that walks decls and binding patterns, a scope-hoist check that reuses the existing kind_stops_hoisting() parent walk, and gates in fold.rs and parse_entry.rs. A 14-fixture itBundled case pins both the wrapper/lift decision per file and the runtime stdout.
Security risks
None. This is bundler output-correctness only — no untrusted-input parsing surface changes, no new allocation or unsafe code, no I/O. The .unwrap() in var_hoists_to_module_scope is the same invariant already relied on at three other sites (module scope has Kind::Entry, which stops hoisting before the parent-less root is reached).
Level of scrutiny
High — this sits in the CJS→ESM lift that every bundled CommonJS file passes through, so a false positive on the new flags would silently cost tree-shaking for common idioms and a false negative reproduces the original wrong-output bug. I had raised five findings over two earlier passes; all five are now fixed in code with matching test fixtures (module-require.cjs, destructured.cjs, ambient.cts, for-of.cjs, and the !is_loop_target guard for Annex B for-in initializers). The var exports = module.exports carve-out is now scoped to exports only and non-loop targets, which is the safe direction: any exemption miss just keeps the wrapper.
Other factors
Test coverage is thorough for the variant matrix REVIEW.md asks for (plain/nested-block/for-header/for-of/for-in/destructured/declare var/uninit/alias/chained), and the PR description already names the two known out-of-scope siblings (bare module = {…} reassignment and top-level this inside the wrapper). Given the semantic subtlety of the lift and how broadly it applies, a human sanity check is still the right call rather than auto-approval, but I have nothing further to flag.

On main a default import that is used as a whole value keeps the
__commonJS wrapper of any CommonJS file. The case stringified the default
import of uninit.cjs, so it could no longer show that `var exports;`
still lifts. Named imports show it again. The expected output is the same.

Nothing blocking. The comments below are optional suggestions. There is no need to push a fix for them before merging.
Beyond the inline findings, I also checked the .unwrap() on scope.parent in var_hoists_to_module_scope (src/js_parser/parse/parse_stmt.rs) — the module scope is created with Kind::Entry (src/js_parser/p.rs:9594) and kind_stops_hoisting is true for Entry, so the walk always terminates before reaching a parentless scope; a TS namespace also pushes an Entry scope, so a var module inside one correctly does not set the flag. A sloppy-mode block-level function exports() {} still lifting to ESM was examined and ruled out as a pre-existing case outside this change's var path.
Extended reasoning...
Since the last review the branch only merged main and switched uninit.cjs to named imports; the parser logic in fold.rs, p.rs, parse_entry.rs and parse_stmt.rs is unchanged. The change touches no security-sensitive surface. Four verified findings are posted inline and the hunt stopped at its bug cap rather than running dry, so approval is not on the table; the note records the unwrap and block-function checks that were ruled out.
…module
- The comparison became import.meta.main, which is true for an entry point.
With a module-level `var module = ...` it compares the file's own object.
- The module.exports = require() re-export of an unwrapped package only
needs the module flag. A file with an unused `var exports = ...` can
still become `export * from`.
- Bump the runtime transpiler cache version: module.require() is printed
differently for such a file.
- Tests: named imports of flagged files (the wrapper now depends on the
flags alone), a for-in target named module, a block-scoped module, an
entry point with require.main, and an unwrapped package.
- The alias only keeps the wrapper value when `module` is the wrapper's
parameter. Beside a top-level `function module() {}` it reads that
function's property, so the file now keeps its wrapper. The check runs
after the parse pass, when hoisted declarations are known.
- Put the `has_user_declared_exports` condition back on the
module.exports = require() re-export. In a lifted file the `var exports`
is the namespace object, so its initializer replaced that object for an
`import * as` consumer.

Beyond the inline findings, I also checked the scope.parent.unwrap() loop in var_hoists_to_module_scope (src/js_parser/parse/parse_stmt.rs) for a user-reachable panic — it cannot fire: the root scope is created with Kind::Entry (p.rs:9604), which satisfies kind_stops_hoisting(), every scope pushed by push_scope_for_parse_pass has parent: Some(..), and module_scope already points at that root during the parse pass (p.rs:9713).
Extended reasoning...
The change adds three parser flags for a module-scope var module/var exports with an own value and gates the CommonJS-to-ESM lifts in fold.rs, parse_entry.rs and visit_binary.rs on them, with a transpiler cache version bump and bundler tests; it touches no security-sensitive surface. Three confirmed findings are posted inline (one regression for var module = module || {}), so a human look is already signalled; this note only records the unwrap-safety check that was ruled out.
Findings marked 🟡 are optional suggestions and need no follow-up push.

… any var module
After `var module = module || {}`, or a `var module` inside a branch that
does not run, `module` is still the wrapper's object. In a bundle that
object has no `require`, so leaving `module.require()` as written threw a
TypeError, and `require.main === module` was false for an entry point.
The two flags now only stop the module.exports rewrite, the exports.x lift
and the module.exports = require() re-export. The other rewrites run as on
main, so the runtime transpiler output does not change and the cache
version goes back to 43.

Beyond the inline findings, I also checked the new scope.parent.unwrap() in var_hoists_to_module_scope (src/js_parser/parse/parse_stmt.rs) — the module scope is Kind::Entry, which kind_stops_hoisting treats as a stop, so the walk always ends at or before it and the unwrap cannot hit None. The earlier declare var module = ... ref-tag concern is closed: the helper now reads the name through load_name_from_ref and is skipped under is_typescript_declare.

It touches no security-sensitive surface. The two inline findings are pre-existing behaviours in sibling rewrite sites rather than regressions in this diff; the ruled-out items here are the one unwrap and the previously raised ref-tag panic, both verified from the scope kind ordering and the current helper code.
A bare `module = {...}` is not a declaration, so the parse-time flags do
not see it. The printer already prints `module.exports` in place of
`exports` when `exports` is assigned. An assignment to `module` now sets
the same flag, so writes through the new object stay on that object.

I reviewed the latest push and found no new bugs; since this changes which CommonJS files the bundler lifts to ESM, a maintainer look at the wrapper-keeping policy is still worthwhile.
What was reviewed:
The new module = {...} handling in visit_expr.rs: an assignment to module_ref now sets the deopt flag the printer reads, so a rewritten module.exports.x prints as written; the bare-module.cjs fixture asserts the exact stdout.
var_hoists_to_module_scope: the parent walk stops at Kind::Entry, which the module scope is, so the unwrap() cannot hit None.
The has_var_exports_from_module_exports promotion in p.rs: a user var module merges into module_ref and takes the has_user_declared_module path, while a function module keeps a distinct ref and promotes has_user_declared_exports as intended.
Extended reasoning...
The change adds three parse-time flags on the parser struct and sets them from var statements and for headers in src/js_parser/parse/parse_stmt.rs, gates the module.exports and exports.x ESM rewrites in src/js_parser/fold.rs and the react-specific unwrapping in src/js_parser/parse/parse_entry.rs on them, and treats a bare assignment to module like one to exports in src/js_parser/visit/visit_expr.rs, with three new itBundled cases. It touches no security-sensitive surface. The two commits since the last review address the previously raised bare module = ... case and shorten a comment, and the bug hunt ran dry with no findings. It is not approved outright because the lift policy (which initializer shapes keep the wrapper, and keeping module.require rewrites beside any var module) is a design trade-off in bundler semantics that a maintainer should weigh, and all inline threads were self-resolved by the author.

var exports;,var exports = module.exports;anddeclare varkeep the wrapper value, so they set no flag and the file still lifts.var exports = module.exports = {}keeps its wrapper because of themodule.exports =assignment, as before.The
var exports = module.exportsalias only counts whenmoduleis the wrapper's. The parser checks that after the parse pass, when hoisted declarations are known. Beside a top-levelfunction module() {}the alias reads that function's property, and the file keeps its wrapper.The
module.exportsrewrite is skipped for either flag, because it prints throughexports_ref.module.require(),module.id,module.filename,module.pathandrequire.main === moduleare rewritten beside anyvar module, as on main. A flag does not prove thatmoduleis the file's own object at run time: aftervar module = module || {}, or avar modulein a branch that does not run, it is still the wrapper's object, and in a bundle that object has norequire. An earlier commit of this PR left those as written, and such a file threwTypeError: module.require is not a function.A bare assignment to
modulemodule = { exports: {} }withoutvaris an assignment, so it sets no flag. Such a file already keeps its wrapper, becausemoduleis used as a value. Itsmodule.exports.leak = 1was still printed asexports.leak = 1, a write to the wrapper's object. Node givesundefinedforleak. Bun 1.4.2 gives1.The visitor now sets

The whole exports object is compared, so a leaked key fails.named-exports.cjs,named-module.cjs: read only through named imports. On main both are lifted andlost/leakare1. These two make the wrapper list fail on main.destructured.cjs,for-header.cjs,for-of.cjs,for-in-module.cjs: the other declaration forms.module-require.cjswithdep.cjs:module.require()is still rewritten beside an ownvar exports.uninit.cjs,aliased.cjs,ambient.cts: no own value, still lifted. They are read through named imports, because on main a default import that is used as a whole value keeps the wrapper of any CommonJS file.chained.cjs: the wrapper is kept by the existingmodule.exports =rule.block-shadow.cjs: a block-scopedmodulewithvar exports = module.exportsinside the block. This is right on main too: the block-levelvaris an assignment to the merged binding, and that use keeps the wrapper. The file only pins it.function-module.cjs: a top-levelfunction module() {}withvar exports = module.exports. On main the file is lifted andfoois exported.bare-module.cjs:module = { exports: { fake: true } }withoutvar, thenmodule.exports.leak = 1. Bun 1.4.2, and this branch before that rule, give1forleak.cjs2esm/ReactSpecificUnwrappingWithOwnVarModuleOrExportsKeepsWrapper: in an unwrapped package,module.exports = require()becomesexport * from. Withvar module = { exports: {} }in front, main still lifts the file and exportsvalue. Withvar exports = {...}in front, main lifts it too. In the lifted file thatvaris the namespace object, so animport * asconsumer gets{ local: true }in place of the re-exports. Both files keep the wrapper now.cjs2esm/VarModuleShimKeepsModuleRequireAndRequireMain:var module = module || {}in the entry point and avar moduleinsideif (typeof module === "undefined")in a second file, each withmodule.require(). It passes on main. It pins the regression described above.Not covered here, same family
value_for_thisstill rewrites a top-levelthistoexports, which is the file's own var in such a file. A gate is not enough: inside the__commonJSwrapperthisis not the exports object, so the wrapper call would need a receiver. esbuild gives the same result as Bun here.moduleobject of the file's own that has arequire,id,filenameorpathmember, or that is compared withrequire.main, still gets the rewrites for the wrapper's module, as on main.Matrix
A script bundles a CommonJS file with
--target=nodeand compares the output of the bundle with the output of unbundled Node. The file declares or assignsexports/modulein one of 14 ways and uses them in one of 8 ways. One of 4 importers loads it. That gives 448 cells.The 34 cells are two faults. Neither needs a declaration of
exportsormodule: both show in the row with no declaration.typeof module.requireis"undefined"in the bundle, because the wrapper'smoduleobject has norequire. esbuild differs from Node in the same 24 cells, with the same output.Object.keys(module.exports)in a lifted file. A namespace import sees every export name before its assignment runs. A side-effect import throwsReferenceError: exports_m is not defined, or aTypeErrorbesidevar exports = module.exports. That fault is the subject of bundler: keep the CommonJS wrapper when the lift leaves amodule.exportsvalue behind #35665. With its twofold.rshunks applied by hand to this branch, those 10 cells match Node and no other cell changes.Run time
